The United Kingdom’s first nationally standardised training programme for retrievers moved one step nearer to completion today as the Gundog Club announced the release date for its Grade Five Retriever Training Award

Here at last is a test to really challenge a dog that is nearing completion of his training, without the added stress and potential disappointment of a competitive environment.  The Gundog Club believes that the working retriever does not need to be tested in a ‘winner takes all’ competition, in order to demonstrate the full range of competence and skills.

Advanced Retriever is the penultimate grade in the Gundog Club’s Graded Training Scheme, a system which enables dogs and their handlers to pass seamlessly through a sequence of training levels, each one a  little more demanding than the last. 

Grade Five paves the way for the final ‘Master’ award which will test the fully trained retriever under field conditions and which is scheduled for release in time for the next shooting season.

The first Grade Five tests will take place from mid April and bookings are now open.
